I know how you feel about the way men talk about women & how uncomfortable it can be.

My last job was in a magazine warehouse & I hated thursdays as that was the day most of the porn mags would come in, many of the men would have a browse as they were packing, from time to time one would approach you to show some woman they'd found in a mag.
as they would show me the picture all I could think about would be the nice shoes or underwear she was wearing, some thursdays i'd go home really depressed.
It wasn't as if I could ignore the magazines I didn't like as whatever job I was doing that day I would be confronted with the cover pictures regardless of the men showing their latest find.

I never knew quite how to deal with it myself & would just nod & smile, if I came out with a comment to stop them suspecting me then i'd hate myself.
At least once i'd came out they respected me enough to stop showing me pictures & I was gratefull for that consideration

That is kind of funny, because all my life it has offended me how people feel like they can't speak freely around me. While I would be disgusted to have any person speak of me in that way, I don't really care if others talk that way about people around me (especially when their style of dress obviously invites it). I've had many male friends that always curb their language around me and it's annoying!! I'm not a delicate flower, I swear. I probably say much worse than you!

Thank you! I never liked oversensitivity. It's so annoying. Just take the dang compliment! Also, if you wear short shorts and show a lot of leg, don't be surprised if guys take notice. If you put your body on blast, people will look. Sorry.
